attic insulation works by impacting the conduction and the convection of heat, helping to keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It also helps reduce noise between rooms, allowing you to enjoy your time at home without the distraction of neighbors or outside traffic. And, like fiberglass and cellulose insulation, spray foam provides a health-promoting barrier that cuts down on mold, airborne pollutants and allergens like pollen and dust.
Long-Term Durability of Spray Foam Insulation
While it’s possible to install spray foam yourself using a DIY kit, it’s best to have a professional contractor do the work for you. Professional contractors have access to the latest equipment, which allows them to achieve consistent coverage and proper expansion across an entire project area. They can also monitor the temperature and moisture content of the spray foam to ensure that it isn’t being affected by outside elements, which can diminish its efficiency and lifespan.
Closed-Cell Spray Foam
Closed-cell spray foam insulation (ccSPF) is more dense than open-cell foam and offers higher R-values — 5-6.5 per inch, versus 3-4.5 per inch for open-cell foam. It’s also resistant to air and water vapor, so it can help prevent the formation of condensation, mildew and mold within walls and ceilings.
Blown-In Cellulose Insulation
Blown-in cellulose insulation is the optimal solution for Gonzales’ climatic conditions. This environmentally friendly and cost-efficient insulation combines recycled paper materials with fire-retardant chemicals to create an effective and durable barrier that keeps your home comfortable during the winter and cool and comfortable in the sweltering Louisiana summers.
